WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Peter S. Petralia conducted an adventurous journey-cum-experiment in which he set out on the Trans-Siberian Railway connecting with artists from around the world for as long as the train was in the station, collecting a constellation of collaborative art objects, experiences and stories. It culminates in Invisible Messages. The ephemeral nature of perception, mobility and fame are teased out by three people who are in the process of disappearing. The piece travels from the depths of the brain to the most remote corner of the Gobi desert in search for an understanding of what it means to be present in the modern world.

Petralia's trip along the Trans-Siberian Railway, Proto-type Theater's Invisible Messages, now in the middle of a limited run at PS 122, succeeds only partially in this respect.
The show weaves together three surrealistic vignettes about search, flight, and disappearance; in each, the actor uses his or her real name for her fictional alter ego. "Meredith Smart" suffers from a debilitating depression caused by a chemical imbalance in her bra[...]
